outside, there should be two projections, each one associated with proportionated projected
moulding. In the middle of the series of buildings formed in a mixed order, there should be
a series of buildings set in a regular order, their breadth being 2 parts and the length being
4 parts. Projections should be provided in their sides occupying 2 parts and one part
available in the outside. All the buildings should be linked to the inner passage occupying one
part. For the main building of the Master, there should be projections in the front side and the
back side so as to occupy their proportionate measures. There should be a protective wall in
the middle, raised to the proportionate height. The first enclosure of the series of the buildings
should be designed in the same way and it should be well linked to the shouldering
apartments. They should be beautified with ornamental structures such as gargoyle, arcature,
vestibules and others. Such construction is called "Srikantam", fit for the affordable people
who are intent on various enjoyments of wealth and comforts.
